Amanda & Matt - Wedding photography in Winnipeg from Patty Boge on Vimeo.

 If it's at all possible that I fell in love with every single client that I had this year, then I did.  I truly did.  And if you look back on my blog, you'll see why... They're all amazing.

Amanda and Matt fall into this category quite easily...  Our relationship started when we met last October, continued over the phone - they live in Toronto - and got stronger when we did the Engagement Pictures back in the spring...  I know what you're thinking: I'm such a suck! And I am!

Amanda and Matt are so in love that it's breathtaking... and it shows!  When Amanda told me about her pink dress I was so excited!  Then she told me she wanted an "edge" to her wedding pictures, and I was absolutely exhilarated!  To top it all, my good friend and the reason I am where I am in photography, Trevor Brucki, came out to shoot with me!  He got a little bossy at times, just like I do when I go out to second shoot with him (apparently!) and we had so much fun, I had a hard time editing down the images for the slideshow (I'm sure you noticed!).

Thank you Trevor for the great images and good times!

Amanda & Matt, enjoy!

Ok, folks, does she NOT look exactly like Gwen Stefani?  Better actually! 

Here's something really sweet.  Her dad, Ed Toews, surprised her when she came home for the wedding, by painting her childhood home HOT PINK, and placing childhood mementos all over the white shelf that he ordered specifically for this occasion.  Amanda's mom said this room will go right back to beige once the wedding is done, but I vote to keep it pink!  It's so awesome! 

 Now, if you want to be driven around in style, you've got to get yourself one of these!  Bohdan has a sweet motor-home that he took to drive around the Wedding Party!

This is one of the many awesome shots that Trevor took. 

I've never seen the Conservatory look so good! 

 Then we went a little edgy!

Then A LOT edgy! 

Just look at these two! 

Though Amanda spent most of the day in her high heels - we had to get the Converse Runners in there! 

 Awesome car!

Amanda's Grandfather is the cutest thing in the world and he used to be a wedding photographer, using Medium Format back in the day.  Really back in the day!!!  This was his camera of choice for the wedding day.  Can't wait to see the pictures, Grandpa! 

 Trevor and I teamed up for some Vintage veil shots and some very technical lighting! ;)

Apparently Grandpa requested Trevor to take this shot.  I LOVE IT! 

And here we are!  Me and my new friends. 

 Trevor, thank you for the million shots and video!

Amanda and Matt, you will be forever part of my life and I hope to be the same to you.  

Love you lots and let's book that Brazil trip for your trash the dress!  Let's not really trash this cute thing though...
